Pierre Renart

Represented since 2011 by maison parisienne.

A young designer of outstanding talent, Pierre Renart is revolutionizing the codes of cabinetmaking, combining traditional savoir-faire with new technologies and developing a unique approach to working in wood. Through curves and counter-curves, he achieves forms that are timeless and creates furniture with clean, flowing lines in a repertoire that is both subtle and sensual. Tirelessly exploring new transformation techniques, Pierre Renart works from veneered sheets of wood from French forests, glued individually with resin according to the glued-laminate technique. The first step in preparing the wood creates the illusion of a single endless strip. This is then shaped into the form of the piece of furniture before being finished off.

Pierre Renart’s furniture has a powerful presence, at once sculptural and functional.
His works are part of prestigious public and private collections. In 2019, a Möbius console in American walnut became part of the public collections of the MAD – Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. The Mobilier National then acquired several of its pieces: a Möbius console in padouk and an Éclosion coffee table in 2020, as well as an Éclosion high table in 2023. In 2021, a Möbius console in American walnut joined the collections of the Palais des Rois de Sardaigne in Nice.

In 2016, Pierre Renart designed the furniture for the Café du Studio Harcourt in Paris. In 2020, he created seven monumental pieces for the lobby of 22 Bishopsgate Building in London. Since 2021, he has been working with Longchamp to design bespoke furniture for their boutique and shop windows, in France and abroad.
Finally, the Hôtel Solvay, a private museum in Brussels, is acquiring his Banquette Möbius Alliance in 2025.

Acquisition - Hôtel Solvay private museum, Brussels

From January 21 to 26, 2025 was held the 3ᵉ edition of maison parisienne‘s exhibition, La Promenade du Collectionneur à l’Hôtel Solvay.
The Hôtel Solvay, a major achievement by Victor Horta and a masterpiece of Art Nouveau, acquires Pierre Renart’s Banquette Möbius Alliance, created in collaboration with sculptor David Léger.

The Banquette Möbius Alliance, conceived as a dialogue between tradition and innovation, is made of American walnut and Grand Antique d’Aubert marble. It pays tribute to the materials employed by Victor Horta and, through the virtuosity of its forms, recalls the organic suppleness of the volutes in Horta’s architecture.

The Hôtel Solvay, which contains a wide variety of woods and marbles, provides the perfect setting for this exceptional piece. Its organic curves blend harmoniously with the architecture of this total work of art and the materials of which it is composed.

The Banquette Möbius Alliance now adorns the second floor of the Solvay couple’s former private appartments, in Mr and Mrs Solvay’s bedroom.
This acquisition celebrates the continuity between heritage and contemporary creation, celebrating the mastery of materials and the excellence of craftsmanship.
